Yacht Secret

Sam Sergiovanni Design

She is designed by Sam Sorgiovanni, while J.W. Harris is responsible for her interior. Harris was also responsible for the interior of Walton’s previous Feadship yacht. Secret was delivered to her owners in 2013.

Yacht Secret

Not much is known about Secret, but she is powered by two Caterpillar diesel engines, giving her a speed of 13 knots. She has a steel hull with an aluminum super structure. She can often be found in Barcelona.

Legal Dispute between Yacht Brokers

Nancy Walton’s ownership of Secret became clear following a legal dispute in the US between two yacht brokers, about the distribution of earned sales commission. (Nancy Walton was NOT a party in this dispute).

According to Broward County Case CACE11013809, a yacht broker named David Frazer was involved in the sale of Nancy Walton’s previous yacht, also named Secret, to US investor Bruce Sherman.

Frazer was fired by the involved yacht broker before closing the sale, but claims a part of the sales commission on the sale.

Charter Yacht Secret

The yacht Secret is not available for charter.

A $ 4 billion stake in Walmart

At Bud's death, she inherited a stake in Wal-Mart now worth USD 4 billion. Nancy Walton is married to Bill Laurie. Nancy and Bill owned the St. Louis Blues hockey team until 2005, when they sold the team to Dave Checketts.

Providence Bank

Nancy and Bill are owners of the Providence Bank. First chartered in 1888, the bank began as the Bank of Lincoln County. In 2007 Nancy Walton Laurie and Bill Laurie purchased the institution and opened a branch in Columbia.

In 2008, the board changed the name to Providence Bank. Now it has two branches in Columbia and is headquartered there.

The bank has grown its assets aggressively since the Lauries acquired it, pumping up its balance sheet from USD 36 million at the end of 2006 to USD 170 million as of September 2010, according to financial data from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.

The biggest boost to Providence’s balance sheet came in October 2010 when it acquired the nine remaining branches and some USD 658 million in assets from Premier Bank after the latter was wound down by the FDIC.
